reform of the entitlements to get a package as big as what is required. we cannot be dealing with the package speaker's talking about $850 billion. we've got to have a package of at least $4 trillion at the end of the day. >> senator, if there's progress on these talks -- if there's some progress on these talks should the president sign a short-term deal, a brief extension while this comes together why this tries to gel? >> no. i don't think that's the first preference. that would create more uncertainty in the markets. i don't think that's the first preference. first preference is to get a process agreed to that getstous the big deal with a significant down payment. >> and with john boehner telling his caucus today get your you know what in line, he doesn't have the çvotes. he can't come up with 217 votes. how does this all come together? does something first have to start many the house or is there a way that harry reid's plan or some change expanded harry reid plan can begin to be seen in both houses? i'm not clear what the road map is. >> you know,

and if you look just to the side of that, you can see that big pile of plastic crates. that is what was burning. they were about two stories high and so when you look at the video here, it looks like there's a building burning but it's actually just a huge stack of plastic crates. after this fire broke out at around 1:00 here yesterday at macro plastics in fairfield, it burned hot. thick, black smoke could be seen from more than 50 miles away, like san francisco and sacramento. the fire was fueled by the plastic produce crates. the theory right now from firefighters is that a worker accidentally lit one of the crates on fire and it quickly took off into a five-acre fire. >> you don't have enough water, you said, in order to douse that heat. >> yeah. it's difficult to have enough water on site using all three hydrants in this industrial complex to be able to put the whole thing out. >> reporter: it took firefighters to get it under control. it wasn't out until later in the evening. three firefighters were injured during the fighting of this fire but nothing serious. all

it reminds me of "too big to tpaeug" the movie -- too big to fail, the movie. they got all the money and then didn't spend a dime on it with helping with mortgages. the damage we're doing to our aviation system is incredibly real. and if we fail to act in a timely manner, it may be so devastating as to become irreversible. when you think about it, it does make sense. if you operate on somebody and cut beyond a certain point, you can't reverse the damage. with so much pain being inflicted on so many, you may ask why my republican colleagues have refused reputed requests to pass a clean extension, something we have done 20 times in the past four years. they are willing evidently to hurt so many of the benefit -- so many people for the benefit of one company. it's called delta airlines. the chairman of the house transportation committee has stated publicly the house-inserted language on the essential air service program, we need that to leverage the senate on including provisions on relating to the national mediation board. now, what do i mean by that? what they s
